re: I’ve been in Baton Rouge this week for work…
Posted by slobhorn on 2/12/26 at 12:42 pm to themetalreb
Look - Baton Rouge is an industrial town but it also has a lot of really nice areas with beautful old oak trees. I live in a very nice neighborhood in Dallas and go to BR several times a year to visit my kids (in school there) and my perspective is that it isn't any more dangerous than most (particularly Southern) cities of its size. But I'm also not a huge pussy that is afraid of cities like a lot of people seem to be these days.
I don't get the downtown comment at all. Late at night it might get a bit rough but I've stayed at the Capitol Hilton/Watermark/Airbnbs in the vicinity multiple times and walked the area late without being remotely afraid.
The have/have not areas of town is something applicable to literally every single city in this country. I'm sure as hell not suggesting that BR is a top 10 US city or something ridiculous like that, but it isn't nearly as bad as some on this board make it out to be.
And whoever said that Austin is the best city in the conference is 100% correct, even if it's getting worse by the day with the shitty transients/tech-bro scumbags. It's the prettiest, has the most things to do (including Nashville), best economy (despite current challenges), proximity to the Hill Country/San Antonio and not far from Dallas/Houston, etc. It's got a ton of built-in advantages.

IIRC (been awhile since I’ve seen it), they do a brain scan of his reaction to stress in Free Solo and he literally doesn’t have any. My stress level and vitals watching him do this from the comfort of my couch are far worse than his when he is doing it. Insane.
Good lord what a god awful hire. I respect the Rooneys and the org, but their decision making has been suspect for 10+ years now. This is NOT an upgrade from Tomlin.
re: Ohio State Hires Arthur Smith for OC

Talk about failing upward. This dude is the heir to the FedEx fortune and has sucked everywhere he’s been. Does a TERRIBLE job of coaching to his players’ strengths. But likely won’t matter outside of 2 games since OSU has more talent than virtually every team they play.
I 100% agree. And I respect the shite out of Alex. But these daredevil types that don’t ratchet it back when they have spouses and children? I get a bit judgmental then. Still - Free Solo is fricking awesome and dude is a total badass.
re: The Indiana Hoosiers are football national champions
Posted by slobhorn on 1/19/26 at 10:26 pm to Deplorableinohio
Uh, no. Said it before, but my in-laws are IU grads and I am ecstatic about the result but this team would get dog walked by 2020 Bama, 2019 LSU, 2005 Texas, 2004 USC, 2001 Miami, 1995-1996 Nebraska, etc…
Beating a dead horse here, but under thrown balls drawing PI = NFL equivalent to James Harden/Shai Gilgeous-Alexander foul merchant bullshite. Two immediate changes the NFL needs to make are to 1) eliminate the roughing the passer calls when guys make perfect tackles and land on top of the QB and 2) no flags on underthrown balls for PI unless the WR is actively working to get back to the ball.
re: Bo Nix out for the rest of the playoffs with broken bone in ankle

Don’t disagree problem is the difference in mobility, particularly given either opponent (moreso Houston).

Will never understand the Bo Nix hate. Solid player and seems like he and his family are great people. And yes he is definitely better than a QB that hasn’t thrown a pass in 2+ years.

I was probably gonna drink anyway tonight, but knowing that this worthless sack of shite probably makes mid-six figures for adding zero value to these broadcasts and hearing his absurd comments on the shite PI calls in OT ensures I’m about to dive off the high board into some fricking brown water.
Both PI calls were dogshit and would have been in the first quarter, much less OT. Buffalo got fricked.
re: Best / Worst NFL Stadium Locations:
Posted by slobhorn on 1/15/26 at 9:55 pm to CunningLinguist
I’m a 7th generation Dallasite so you can guess my allegiance, and our stadium is awful and an embarrassment to the franchise and the city.

I’d vote in no particular order (I strongly prefer urban stadiums) - New Orleans, Seattle, Pittsburgh, SoFi (not the best location in LA but at least in the city and the design is great). Jerry World and San Fran blow.

Posted by slobhorn on 1/15/26 at 9:49 pm to GentleJackJones
I’m a Cowboys fan and could not agree more. Sterile, shitty environment with poor sight lines and idiotic design (sun), in a shite location. Everyone blames Laura Miller but Jerry is equally (it not moreso) to blame. The original and REAL Cotton Bowl has more character in a 75-year old stall shitter than Jerry World has in its entirety. And way better design and sight lines (end zone seats are actually decent due to the design).
I would rather Dallas play there with zero renovations than where they are playing now. Texas Stadium sucked but I’d take that over Jerry World.

Jason Brown is a clown and a liar with absolutely no credibility. Don’t believe everything you read simply because it confirms your perspective. This isn’t the first time he has made something up out of whole cloth and it won’t be the last. And I could care less about Lamar or the Ravens.
I can’t stand Notre Dame but Fleeger sounds like a real piece of shite and I hope this gets dismissed with prejudice
re: Caleb Williams is a winner
Posted by slobhorn on 1/11/26 at 2:18 pm to Buckeye Fan 19
A rare sane, logical post here and spot on. My wife is from Chicago and I am glad the Bears won. A big reason why some (but not all) LSU fans dislike Caleb has nothing to do with him and everything to do with the bizarrely antagonistic takes from some more vocal online Bears fans re: Jayden Daniels. Both guys can be good at the same time.
re: LSU’s Worst Defeat of The Season
Posted by slobhorn on 1/9/26 at 10:42 pm to captdalton
You and cajunbama are the worst posters on this board (quite an accomplishment). Add absolutely nothing of value and even your trolling is equivalent to kindergarten trash talk. frick off.
Laughable. My in-laws went to IU and I am a fan of the team and a huge believer in Cignetti and the team. Pre NIL teams were able to stack way more talent and look 10 years down the road at what this Indiana roster does in the NFL versus what the 2019 LSU roster did in the NFL and it will give you a sense for the difference in talent. Yes, IU has a better team defense but no chance any team in the past 4 years beats any champ in the few years before that (LSU, UGA, Bama, Clemson). Zero chance.

Great game Rebs hold your heads high. Did not like the defensive strategy on Miami’s last drive but a helluva game.
I’m an LSU fan but I love Chambliss. Great story, baller, ice water in his veins.
